This is how I see the American Right, where we stand and what we believe, without the religion tossed in…..YET!!!!
We are tired of paying high taxes to support the dregs of society….pulling down the cream to raise the dregs is evil and supports laziness and rewards stupidity.
Work Hard, no one owes you a living, a house or any education beyond basic reading, writing and math. If you want a better lot in life work for it, it is there for the taking IF you have the drive and intelligence.
We won’t let you starve in the streets but don’t care if you want to be lazy and live under a bridge.
If you are truly handicapped we will help you…alot….but of you try to pull that mental handicap crap you had better be a real good actor or seriously demented. If you are seriously demented and you get violent we lock you up…for life, we don’t need violent people wandering around.
If you commit a crime you go to jail where you will be punished….alot…we don’t need stupid people walking around.
If you kill someone and it is NOT in self defense you go to jail….we don’t need violent people walking around.
If you do it in a heineous manner we will kill you for it….not only do we want violent people locked up we don’t want to house you for the rest of your life at our expense.
The money we make should be, for the most part, ours…..not the governments to fritter away for more social programs.
We should have a very secure border, and people that sneak in are criminals and should be bagged and tagged so they can never come back.
A proactive offense beats the hell out of a reactive defense anyday….reactive defense is for cowards and victims….and we are neither.
Our money that we pay in taxes should stay at home….countries that get aid from us and hate us anyway should be told to fuck off..it is not our governments job to make sure that people that live under corrupt third world governments and starve are fed…..that is THEIR governments job.
The UN is an anti-American group and should be tossed out of America and told to shut their useless mouths.
The ACLU is an evil organization that should be charged as a criminal organization.
Capitalism is good, socialism is evil.
The individuals socio-economic mobility is the backbone of a great country, and small business is the backbone of socio-economic mobility.
Radical environmentalists have done more damage to business in the U.S. than any other single factor and should be taken to task for it.
The individual should decide how much charity to give, and not government….my money is just that, MINE!!!!
Rapist, murderers, pedophiles, thieves, drug addicts and whiners are NOT “victims of their misunderstood childhoods”…they are rapists, murderers, pedophiles, thieves, drug addicts and whiners, and with the possible exception of the whiners they should all go to jail for a very long time….except pedophiles…..they should be shot upon conviction.
Oh yeah….political correctness is bullshit….either grow a thicker skin or go away….sometimes life isn’t fair….deal with it….and you have absolutely NO RIGHT whatsoever to NOT be offended!!!
Any questions?
**The above was a comment on another blog. I won’t say which one as they deserve no more traffic, and I hate giving them any to begin with. However I stop by there to hone the old talons and it works well. Below is part of a response by them regarding the above statements.**
From Fr*****: “Kender…..In case you are under the mistaken impression that your fulmination refutes the belief that you are a racist, fascist, sectarian, think again. Thanks for your input. I’m sure we can put it to use as we define the American right.”
**My reply is below, and finally I have shown you, but more importantly myself, once and for all that the people on the other side of the street are indeed non-thinking, brainwashed people that truly wallow in their ignorance. I feel sorry that people such as this are so blinded by their hatred however, it gives me hope that the socialist left is indeed losing power like Dean after his scream.**
“Fr*****…how did what I say show one bit of racism? Or fascism?
Fascism subjugates the individual in favor of the state.
Racism is the belief that someone is inherently inferior because of their race.
I am an individualist. The antithesis of a fascist.
And unless “STUPID” or “LAZY” is now a race and I missed that memo I utterly fail to see how you can call me a racist.
I am also not sectarian….the “sect” of success is open to those willing to work for it.
You people really do not comprehend this do you???
You honestly do not understand the meanings of the words you throw around and only see what you wish to see in what you read and not the truth, and I cannot believe that people that claim to be educated can read what I wrote and say it is fascist or racist.
Now I am laughing at you guys…..I have been worried that socialism and EU style policies are a threat to America…..you guys aren’t a threat, anymore than the dems are a threat…….you guys are truly brainwashed and nothing more than a joke that neither understands that which you are discussing nor the fact that you are utterly comical in your ignorance.
Thank you for being so enlightening to me today…….I gave you your rope, and in true idiot fashion, you hung yourselves.”
Nuff Said!!!!

Radical Muslims get most of the press when it comes to terrorism, and with good reason. But we don’t want to forget that they aren’t the only ones eager to inflict harm on the innocent in an attempt to impose their pernicious ideology.
The problem is, some are so screwy, it’s hard to take them seriously. Take the Animal Liberation Front, for example. Hare-brained moonbats who can’t tell the difference between animals and human beings don’t exactly inspire the dread of an Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
But they are terrorists nonetheless. And dangerous.
In an act right out of the movie 28 Days Later, in which animal rights kooks “liberate” infected animals from a lab, unleashing a plague that destroys civilization, ALF terrorist Keith Mann broke into Wickham Laboratories in Hampshire, England, and stole documents and hundreds of mice being used in experiments that involved botulinum toxin. At first, the judge typically sentenced him to nothing more than community service. In the words of Judge Richard Price:
I am not going to send you to prison because I know in your eyes and in the eyes of others I would turn you into a martyr. A martyr you are not, a damn nuisance you are.
However, despite the silliness of their ideology, Mann and his kind are actually much worse than “a damn nuisance.” Mann could not even make it out of the courtroom without committing another crime, threatening violence against Chris Bishop, technical director of Wickham Laboratories. For this he received a 6-month sentence for contempt of court.
Mann has been to the Big House before, having received a 14-year sentence in 1994 (later reduced, of course) for 21 terror-related offenses that included arson and possession of explosives. The judge in that case described him as “dangerous and fanatical” and noted that his tactics “bore all the hallmarks of terrorism.”
Mann has acted as a spokesman for ALF. Some notable quotes that can be found on ALF’s own site include one of his own:
We are capable of dealing with anyone. No one has died yet but that time will come.
Here’s another, by ALF spokeswoman Vivian Smith:
I would be overjoyed when the first scientist is killed by a liberation activist .
And another, by activist Rod Coronado:
I think they should appreciate that we’re only targeting their property. Because frankly I think it’s time to start targeting them.
Similarly ominous noises have been made by PETA’s Bruce Friedlich and everyone’s favorite Ethnic Studies professor, Ward Churchill, who has advocated violence against individuals employed in the meat industry.
For more notable quotes, and to get a better idea of just how dangerously insane the animal rights movement has become, check out the collection of quotes at Fur Commission USA. A list of ALF “POWs” — that is, convicted terrorists — can be found on ALF’s site here.
No wonder the Left rarely fails to interfere with Bush’s attempts to defend us from terrorism. Any group that wishes to impose an extreme ideology against the will of the population is going to be tempted to resort to terrorist tactics. Left-wing moonbats have proven themselves to be no exception.

Hassan Akbar, the Sgt. responsible for firing shots and discharging a grenade into the tent of his fellow soldiers has been sentenced to death for his crimes. It was reported that he gave no emotion to the verdict but stood at attention silently while it was read.
Just hours earlier Sgt. Akbar gave the only apology in the trial. He gave a barely audible and short apology and nothing more. It consisted of these words:
“I want to apologize for the attack that occurred. I felt that my life was in jeopardy, and I had no other options. I also want to ask you for forgiveness.”
The sentence is subject to automatic appeal. If he is executed it will be by lethal injection.

Perhaps there is no other issue as fragile to the preservation of our liberties than a careful balance between civil liberties and our national security. To its credit, the ACLU recognizes the danger if the scales are tipped too far to the side of national security, however it doesn’t seem to acknowledge the danger if the scales are reversed.
“Absolute” is the key word to understanding the ACLU. Its absolutist philosophies, just as any extremist view, endangers the very civil liberties it claims to protect.
In his book “Twilight of Liberty”, William Donahue compares Halperins views of liberty with that of Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson said, “A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country, by scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us: thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means.”
“There is no doubting the ACLU’s concern that there are untrustworthy public officials who will invoke national security as a cloak to cover their own wrongdoings; the pages of history are full of them. But does that mean that the only proper response is to make absolute the Bill of Rights, even in those clear-cut instances when the nation’s viability is seriously called into question: It is fair to say that most who have studied the question would prefer to side with Jefferson on this matter” Twilight of Liberty pg 172
There is probably no other time that a proper balance between civil liberties and national security becomes more important than in wartime. During times of war, sometimes unusual responses are implemented, often requiring suspension of certain liberties. Of course war opens the opportunity for abuse by governments, and the ACLU are right to watch for them. However, the ACLU in its absolutist perception of freedom, only worries about one side of the equation, civil liberties. It pays no attention to the national security side of things, not only ignoring it, but in many cases working against it.
It is nothing new for the ACLU. The grew out of an organized effort to protest World War I. The only exception to their anti-war stance was World War II, and part of that is due to the investigation during this time into the theory they could be a Communist Front group.
“From 9-11 to the present day, the ACLU has vigorously opposed every governmental attempt to more effectively protect the American people’s security. It sued, for example, to prevent the implementation of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, which was passed in November 2001 and included a citizenship requirement for airport screeners. It organized protests against a “discriminatory” Justice Department and INS registration system requiring male “temporary visitors” to the US from 25 Arab and Muslim nations to register with the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services. It condemned the FBI’s “discriminatory” plan to count and document every mosque in the US. It protested when FBI and Homeland Security agents recently tried to track down illegal Iraqi immigrants they deemed dangerous. In Illinois, the ACLU actually set up a hotline designed to give free legal advice to undocumented Iraqis facing deportation. Former ACLU Executive Director Ira Glasser casually dismissed Americans’ concerns about illegal immigration, chalking such sentiments up to a “wave of anti-immigrant hysteria.”
“The ACLU further claims that the Patriot Act has created an Orwellian big government of unprecedented proportions. “Under the new Ashcroft guidelines,” reads one of its disingenuous press releases, “the FBI can freely infiltrate mosques, churches and synagogues and other houses of worship, listen in on online chat rooms and read message boards even if it has no evidence that a crime might be committed.” Curiously, the ACLU does not mention that the FBI already had the authority to take these measures long before the Bush administration took power. Nor does the ACLU point out that the FBI can wiretap only after showing a court that the suspect is affiliated with a foreign terrorist group or government – the very same requirement instituted 25 years ago by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act”.
“What the ACLU is actually rebelling against is the Justice Department’s recent removal of Clinton-era intelligence-gathering restrictions that had crippled the government’s ability to fight terrorism. These restrictions prohibited intelligence investigators from conferring and sharing information with criminal investigators, even if they were both trailing the very same suspect who was plotting a terrorist act. On August 29, 2001, for instance, an FBI investigator in New York desperately pleaded for permission to initiate an intensive manhunt for al-Qaeda operative Khalid Almihdar, who was known to be planning something big. The Justice Department and the FBI deputy general counsel’s office both denied the request, explaining that because the evidence linking Almihdar to terrorism had been obtained through intelligence channels, it could not legally be used to justify or aid an FBI agent’s criminal investigation; in short, it would constitute a violation of Almihdar’s “civil rights.” “Someday, someone will die,” the agent wrote to his FBI superiors, “and the public will not understand why we were not more effective and throwing every resource we had at certain problems.” Thirteen days later, Almihdar took over the cockpit of American Airlines Flight 77 and crashed it into the Pentagon
Exerpt Front Page MagazineOne of the most revealing occurances towards the ACLU’s absolutist position on national security and its recent evolution can be seen in the action the board of directors took at its Oct 1989 meeting: It dropped section (a) from its policy, “Wartime Sedition Act.” Before, the ACLU held that it “would not participate (save for fundamental due process violations) in defense of any person believed to be “cooperating” with or acting on behalf of the enemy.” This policy was based on the recognition that “our own military enemies are now using techniques of propaganda which may involve an attempt to prevent the Bill of Rights to serve the enemy rather than the people of the United States.” In making its determination as to whether someone were cooperating with the enemy, “the Union will consider such matters as past activities and associations, sources of financial support, relations with enemy agents, the particular words and conduct involved, and all other relevant factors for informed judgement.”
All of this is now omitted from the Official ACLU policy!
As these policy changes indicate, balancing national security interests and civil liberties is not a goal of the ACLU. Its only goal is the absolute pursuit of unlimited civil liberties, with no regard to any consequence or negative impact upon our security. Not only does it ignore the issue of national security, but there are many examples I have shown where they actually work against it, even to the point of defending the enemy. The absolute tragedy is that it is not only the nations’s security the ACLU’s absolutist philosophy puts in danger, but the very cause of liberty itself. We’ve also saw recently the attitude of the ACLU to securing our borders, again civil liberties trump national security.
It pursues its radical agenda with your taxdollars.

There was more disturbing news from Iran a couple of days ago regarding the mad mullah’s latest attempt to prove to the world how peaceful their nuclear programme is:
Iran is not only covertly developing nuclear weapons, it is already testing ballistic missiles specifically designed to destroy America’s technical infrastructure, effectively neutralizing the world’s lone superpower, say U.S. intelligence sources, top scientists and western missile industry experts.
The radical Shiite regime has conducted successful tests to determine if its Shahab-3 ballistic missiles, capable of carrying a nuclear warhead, can be detonated by a remote-control device while still in high-altitude flight.
[…]
Scientists, including President Reagan’s top science adviser, William R. Graham, say there is no other explanation for such tests than preparation for the deployment of electromagnetic pulse weapons – even one of which could knock out America’s critical electrical and technological infrastructure, effectively sending the continental U.S. back to the 19th century with a recovery time of months or years.
… So if the civilised world won’t voluntarily join the mullahs in the seventh century, they plan to bomb us all back to it? What’s that about? Do they imagine that if we’re deprived of our technology for a few months the joys of flogging and head-hacking will suddenly become apparent? Oh. Wait. Don’t say this is some kind of laughable attempt to appear threatening. Because, you know, it takes more than a gang of bearded goat-molesters armed with something called a Shahab-3 to do that.
What’s even more puzzling, though, is how on earth the Islamonazi crazies hope to convince anyone their soon-to-be enriched uranium is for civilian purposes while simultaneously developing weapons which are only useful if hooked up to a nuclear payload. Or were they hoping to get the massive, high-altitude explosions past the U.S. intelligence community? It really is like trying to do grown-up diplomacy with a group of naughty four-year-olds, isn’t it?
Still, just as the mullahs are congratulating each other on their new-found destructive capabilities — wouldn’t you know it? Someone comes up with a plan to spoil their party:
The Bush administration has authorized the sale of as many as 100 large bunker-buster bombs to Israel. One expert said the move should serve as a warning to Iranians with nuclear ambitions.
The proposed deal, worth as much as $30 million, would provide Israel with the capability to drop 5,000-pound bombs that can penetrate bunkers and other buried structures. The GBU-28 bombs can be dropped from Israel’s American-made F-15 fighters.
So, no nuclear-powered jihad this year, then.

Now, here’s a sentence I never thought I’d have to write: Anti-Semitism sells.
Well, okay, not all forms of anti-Semitism. The racist, far-right crazies, waving their union jacks and ranting about rivers of blood aren’t a marketable commodity. But I don’t mean them.
Nor Islamofascist lunatics. The bearded, seventh-century jihadists have been spouting the kind of outright anti-Semitic bigotry that would have done the average nazi party member proud for decades. But what they don’t threaten to do, at least for the time being, is push their views into the mainstream of British consciousness. Doubtless, this will come, but for the time being, Radical Islam’s demented foot-soldiers still write their ‘Jews to the gas’ banners in Arabic, then dive for cover behind the Commission For Racial Equality at the first sniff of criticism. So, no, I don’t mean them either.
What I’m talking about is this kind of thing:
Rachel Corrie, crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in the Gaza Strip two years ago, has caught the imagination of a fresh audience as her life story emerges as one of the most sought-after theatre tickets in the country.
The Royal Court in London announced yesterday that My Name is Rachel Corrie had become one the fastest sell-outs in its 50-year history. Tickets for the play’s 24 performances sold out in less than two days, the majority of them bought by one of the youngest audiences the theatre can recall. Actor and director Alan Rickman, whose idea it was to transform Corrie’s life into drama, is already looking at taking the play to the US where, unlike in Europe, the 23-year-old’s death has generated modest media coverage.
This travesty is attracting rave reviews everywhere and, disturbingly, being attended by far larger-than-average numbers of under-25s. What it’s also doing is transforming Rachael Corrie from a demented activist and supporter of terrorism into — What? Some kind of secular saint? A martyr?
Well, if mass-murderer and all round Stalinist scumbag Che Guavara is any indication, the left have always made poor choices when it comes to picking heroes, so why should it be any different with Corrie? She is, in fact, fast becoming something of an icon for those leftists who sign on to the following blurb: young, idealistic, her frail form cut down as she stood against the might of Israeli hardware. Blah. Blah. Blah. Pretty soon, we’ll be seeing her face emblazoned on t-shirts and posters, all proceeds going to Hamas and the PLO.
At which point, we’ll have moved so far from the truth that Corrie’s memory will be forever untouched by the morally questionable facts that surrounded her life. For instance, and if you listen to the likes of Alan Rickman telling it, Corrie died protecting Palestinian homes from the onslaught of Israeli bulldozers. This is Brand-Corrie, and in order to market it to a mass-audience, certain inconvenient facts appear to have been left out of the story.
For instance, the Israeli bulldozer that killed her wasn’t sent to demolish a house, but the terrorist smuggling tunnel beneath it. Arm the young audiences attending Rickman’s play with this information, and perhaps some photographs of dead Israeli schoolchildren, the victims of the explosives such tunnels are used to bring into Palestine, and suddenly Brand-Corrie isn’t quite so marketable. Then there’s the whole business of Corrie being ‘crushed’ by the bulldozer. What does that mean? The driver just ploughed into her? Flattened her? Well, granted, it’s a temptation for anyone faced with a moonbat in full-on protest mode … But, no. Actually, Corrie was just clipped by the bulldozer, whose driver, heavily-shielded as he was in order to avoid being killed himself by an Islamonazi sniper, simply failed to spot her capering around in front of his vehicle.
The reason all this matters, quite apart from it being the truth, is because Brand-Corrie feeds the awful lie that Rachael was a heroine. Not a deluded dupe. And certainly not a supporter and propagandist for Pali child-murderers. No. That Rachael, the real Rachael, is being systematically airbrushed out of the picture. In her place, we get a martyr, bravely standing with the huddled, Palestinian masses in their hour of need.
This is a complete fiction, of course, but get people to swallow it, and they’ll be a lot closer to accepting the idea that if Rachael was a good person, then the Israelis are wicked. What, after all, is the heroine of a popular drama without someone to play the role of villain?
This is the real poison that Rickman and the Royal Court are peddling, and if the ticket sales, rave reviews, and packed houses are anything to go by, it’s a poison the British public are eager to lap up.
My Name is Rachael Corrie looks as though it will run and run. But, like I said, in modern Britain anti-Semitism sells.

In an attempt to put forth further gun controls, California Senator Joe Dunn (D) will be proposing serial numbers be placed on all handgun bullets in California. The current gun companies’ argument into the case is that they would be unable to keep up with the needs for ammunition if a numbering system were to be implemented. They state that it would be tantamount to a ban on handgun ammunition altogether.
It is unclear if this legislation would carry over to a ban on individual bullet reloading or not.

This is a play rattling around in my head dealing with an over exaggeration of something called “The God Tax”. It’s a theoretical discussion by Democratic leaders attempting to do what Democrats are reviled most for: taxes. It’s also not meant to be real. It’s just a figment of my own imagination. However, if something similar to this happens in the future I reserve all rights to the phrase: “See? I told you so!”

The P.C. police are at it again. This time God is not the target. Today Christ is under fire. Leave it to the scholars to try and change the wording in our dating system. Yes, the dating system that was designed around Christianity and has been going strong for around 2005 years is under attack.
B.C., or Before Christ has been used since Roman times around the same time Constantine converted to Christianity. Dionysius Exiguus, a monk from Russia who died about 544, was asked by Pope John I to set out the dates for Easter from the years 527 to 626. This is where our current B.C., A.D. system originated. 1,463 years later, in 1990, the P.C. police want to change it to B.C.E. or Before Common Era. They want to push the Son out as well as the Father.

Eureka!! I’ve finally done it. I feel like Isaac Newton or Albert Einstein…you see, I’ve figured it out! Yes! At last, the meaning of ‘nuance’.
And the definition proves that it’s true, it is much harder being a Liberal than being a Conservative. Recent stories point to why…
The Navajo Nation on Friday outlawed same-sex marriages on its reservation. The Tribal Council voted unanimously in favor of legislation that restricts a recognized union to that between a man and a woman, and prohibits plural marriages as well as marriages between close relatives.
Hmm, so here we have an indigenous people attacking, nay abolishing, gay marriage? Uh oh. Where is the non-hypocritical Progressive to fall on this issue? ‘We lust after gay marriage, and yet they are a minority’ ‘The Navajos are anti-gay..damn it! And with Mr. Churchill in our ranks, we can’t be seen as anti-Indian. What a pisser!’ Quite a conundrum.
On the other hand, as a Conservative, this one is easy. No gay marriage=good. A minority group taking responsibility and handling issues on their own=great. Not requiring any extra taxes paid on my part=excellent(wringing my hands per Charles Montgomery Burns).
And…
The Legislative Committee of the Wisconsin Conservation Congress, which introduced the question, said studies in Wisconsin show that feral cats kill millions of small mammals, songbirds and game birds. Those same studies estimate that feral cats kill 47 to 139 million songbirds every year in Wisconsin.
Doh. Poor Liberal PETA members gotta have their tofu panties in a wad over this one. ‘Do we save the cats…or the birds?’ ‘Hmm…little helpless kitties or sweet singing songbirds?’ ‘Or, we could just pass a law requiring all cats to become vegans!’ Decision, decisions.
But as a Conservative, I have it easy. If the cats are the problem, fix it. I feel bad for the little fellers, but if I had rats or racoons causing problems in my abode, I would fix the problem…you would too, admit it.
And…
Between a speech he delivered without notes and a question-answer session, (Howard) Dean regaled an appreciative audience for nearly 90 minutes without once raising his voice, as he did after last year’s Iowa primary election. But he did draw howls of laughter by mimicking a drug-snorting Rush Limbaugh.
“I’m not very dignified,” he said. “But I’m not running for president anymore.”
He’s at it again. ‘Mimicking a drug-snorting Rush Limbaugh.’? That has to be tearing my fair minded Lib friends apart. ‘How can we accept such quotes from the leader of the DNC, and still rail against John Bolton for being mean?’ Ooh, quite a quandary.
But as a Conservative, I say, “Howard Dean. He sure is funny. Just keep him talking.”
And…
Chicago Cubs shortstop Nomar Garciaparra will be sidelined at least two to three months because of a torn left groin.
Garciaparra was placed on the 15-day disabled list yesterday, a day after he got hurt while leaving the batter’s box during a game against St. Louis. Cubs trainer Mark O’Neal said the muscle pulled away from the bone.
Bet you FemmiNazis are loving this one. I can hear you now, ‘That patriarchal estrogen hating male got what he deserved! And right where he deserved it!’ ‘Ah, but what of female compassion? What of the higher feminine mentality? Oh screw it, all men are evil!’ Ah, the moral predicament.
But as a Conservative, all I can say is, “Ouch!” (Hey, I know this one was a stretch, but I’m a Cub fan and this one really hurt.)
Well, these stories point out one thing to me, and that is:
Conservative thought and ideology is simple. It is less contradictory. Less ‘nuanced’.
And of course this gives us Conservatives more time to think about what is really important. Like should I buy the Colt or the Smith and Wesson? Or what page of the bible did I leave off on? Or is my V8 Ram ready for an oil change? Or I wonder what’s on Fox News right now? Or have I got my talking points e-mail from Karl Rove yet today?
Apologies to Noah Webster, here is my final definition of ‘nuance’:
>n. a not so subtle contradiction in thought or terms. (my def.)
>v. (usu. be nuanced) to add confusion to. (my def.)
-ORIGIN French, from Latin nubes ‘cloud’* (this one’s real, check it out! ‘cloud’? Ha, couldn’t be more perfect. )
Postscript:
The above is purely meant as sarcasm and irony. Those without a sense of humor may comment, but be assured I will merely laugh at your shallowness and pettiness.
Also, no kittens were killed or injured in the typing of this post. I cannot be held responsible however, for any brain cells that may have been damaged.

I guess the same can be said of one man’s victory is anothers loss. And this is true over at Daily Kos, where the brain-dead children of the left continue to bump blindly into walls as they squeeze whatever fecal matter they can out from inbetween their ears. Why do I bring this up? Because everytime an insurgent blows up a car or attacks a group of soldiers, the American left throws up their hands in disgust, runs up the white flag of surrender and says, “See… we told you so…“
Armando, a guest writer at Kos says :
Iraq is trending towards chaos in my opinion. When can our troops come home? What’s the success strategy?
Really Armando? Perhaps you should go and read Sir George’s post over at The Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler. He points out these stunning statistics, comparing that war to end all wars, Vietnam, with Iraq, and to show that the U.S. is is not getting handed its proverbial ass by the all-powerful insurgents:
March 2005 US fatalities – 36.
Febuary 1968 US fatalities - 2,221.
Still looking for the Vietnam quagmire, but if you look hard enough, and really squint, you might be able to see a rain forest somewhere in the desert with the V.C. in black pajamas running around, and wait, yep, there’s JFK (not the Kennedy) burning down houses, lopping off ears and raping and pillaging like Genghis (pronounced Gin-jizz) Kahn. Yep. Clear as mud.
Armando then asks when can our troops come home. Yes, Armando and the kos boyz are SOOOOOOOOO concerned with the American troops. The return of the American soldiers is so important to them because they just feel for them having to rape, pillage and destroy the Iraqi countryside. Actually, they feign concern for the American troops so that they can legitmize their calls for the failure of America. As an American serviceman, I don’t want these “winter soldiers” “caring” for me. Thanks, but no thanks.
To answer Armando, the American troops will come home when we HAVE WON!The strategy is not to LOSE. While I know that sounds awfully simple, I know that America winning this conflict will spell doom for their communist agenda that they wish to force on the U.S., but they will just have to wait until the next conflict so that they can stop drinking their lattes in Starbucks, go to the evil capitalist Wal-Mart to purchase their posterboard and markers, go to their parents basement and start planning the next revolution to establish a workers paradise in the western hemisphere….
